Officer filmed sleeping on the job

The London police officer apparently caught sleeping in a cruiser will remain on the job while an internal investigation is conducted, the police chief says.

An A news TV videographer filmed an unidentified woman constable with her head tilted back, mouth open and eyes shut in the driver's seat of a police cruiser parked outside the scene of a house fire Tuesday morning.

While he wouldn't go into details of the investigation, Chief Brad Duncan said Wednesday catching shut eye on the job is unacceptable behaviour.
